All McNaab needs is ONE Bad Game and the Philly fans will be up his throat again. I was in Philly in early December and it was annoying to hear how disrespectful and divided the fans were on the issue. McNaab is the only premium QB in the NFL who gets so much disrespect from the fans and media.

5 NFC Title games, Wow !! The guy has been throwing the ball all over despite having no reciever worth his salt, yet gets pummelled as if he is the reason for Eagles' failure.

Gah can't eblieve I'm at work missing this. Left home at half time when we were 24-6 down. Following it on play by play text is killing me.

So shattered for Warner and Fitzy but wow Big Ben came up roses when he needed to. Hard to begrudge them victory.

Cracking game though, first three qurters were underwhelming but the 4th was out of this world again.

What a game. I was cheering hard for the Cardinals. Thought they had it won after that Fitzgerald touchdown gave them a 3 point lead with less than 3 minutes to go. But then Big Ben does his magic and snatches the lead back. Congrats Steelers. Well done Cards!

Jumped on the Steelers Bandwagaon right after the Ravens game :)))) The bandwagon feels really really nice, although I wouldn't have felt too bad If Arizona had won because of the hometown connection like Fitgzerald and the Cardinals Coaches.

Man that was so awesome to see Ben (No 7) throwing that TD the clutch time. The MVP award to Santonio was crap, The guy missed an open TD before he caught the second one. Ben deserved the MVP award for coming out and making big plays after big plays despite having no running game and crap OL, not to forget the fact that his main reciever Ward was only 1/2 fit. Have said it in the past, will say it again, Ben is the best QB of his class.

Steelers deserve every success they get. The Rooney's know how to run a sports team and their proffessionalism is being rewarded yet again. Add to that the city is absolutely Steelers crazy and I'm happy for them.

Cards have long been an afterthought by their fans and owner and although I was rooting for Fitzy I think they'll get over this very easily. Right team won for mine, 6 bowls is ridiculous in a league with so much parity.

They are a class act but l I disagree with the bold part. Paying 100 Million Dollars to the QB and **** to men who protect him. Ben is a once in a life time QB, you got to have the men to protect him.

It is no surprise that Steelers have 2 Superbowls in last 5 seasons and another season with a 15-1 record (losing to the eventual champs NE Patriots in AFC game), That's 3 outstanding seasons in 5 seasons and that is because they have a Franchise QB of Ben's Calibre. He may not have the stats ro get to Probowl, but the guy makes plays when he needs to and makes some recievers like Nate Washington and Cedric Wilson look like geniuses.

Harrison for me, nothing short of the greatest play in NFL history, turned the entire game around.

And I have to reluctantly agree with the second point as well, Ben has got to be the third best QB in the NFL at the moment and is far and away the best of the 04 class.

Yes, I have no problem with that choice. It was basically a 14 point score. Cards were going to take the lead instead, it became a 10 point Steeler advantage, thanks to an Outstanding play.
